Napa - Sonoma Mustard Grass

[Sideshow Bob]

Does anyone know if the Mustard is blooming in the Napa/Sonoma valleys? Is it none yet, just starting, peak, or past peak? Does anyone know whom I could call to find out?

Thanks for any input.

I don't know if there is a specialized group that follows this, but I'd guess the Sonoma Chamber of Commerce or tourist bureau might be a place to start.

It is just starting, but will come in fast.

Thanks Ralph and John. John, what would be your guess? Another week or two?

Thanks,

I think a week or two sounds right. Some rows here and there are fully filled in, some not at all, some just getting started. But it has rained, and the sun has also been out. Things are starting to grow fast.

I live in Napa. The mustard has started blooming, as are some of the trees. With the weather forcasted to getr warm later in the week, it will go crazy.

Bob,
I think it is getting better Up Valley (toward St Helena). It still has a way to go down here in Napa. I have been going crazy getting ready for my show (it opens tomorrow) and haven't been out checking it out. I might take a ride up valley tomorrow. If I do, I'll let you know. I'll try to keep you posted.

If you get up here, check out my show in Napa.

Gale,
My apologies for calling you Bob. I saw the Sideshow Bob screen name and didn't read to the end.
